The Sidney Prize, the Neilma Sydney Short Story Prize and the Eureka Prize 2025

The Sydney Prize recognizes exceptional journalism from the prior month and is selected by a panel of journalists and academics including its founder, Professor Sidney Hook. The prize honors its namesake who advocated that history should be understood through multiple lens rather than solely focusing on individual leaders’ achievements or failures.

The 2024 Sydney Prize will award its winner with a $5,000 cash prize and publish their short story in Overland magazine, with two runners-up each receiving $750 prizes. It’s open to writers of any writing experience worldwide – imaginative, creative and literary interpretations are especially encouraged!

Ender Baskan won the 2021 Judith Wright Poetry Prize sponsored by Overland for his piece ‘are you ready poem’. This prize served as a rallying call to artists and writers to make something dangerous with their art or writing; Gareth Morgan placed second with “the national debt”, followed by Lillian Rupcic with her work’stones”.
